Texas head coach Shaka Smart announced Monday star guard Andrew Jones will miss several games with a fractured wrist. The sophomore suffered the injury while taking a hard fall at the end of the team's win at VCU last Tuesday.

Texas G Andrew Jones has a fractured wrist, per Shaka. Will be out several weeks.

An Irving native, Jones leads Texas with 15.3 points per game. His injury came in a game where he scored 19 points and drilled four triples.

Texas has several options on its roster to replace Jones in the starting lineup. Junior Eric Davis Jr. is the most likely candidate to step in and take over shooting guard duties.

Still, it will be difficult for the Longhorns to replace Jones' scoring prowess and shooting ability. His 43 percent three-point efficiency is well above all of his teammates — Jacob Young is next at 37 percent.

Texas returns to action on Tuesday with a home matchup against Michigan at 8 p.m.
